Media Psychology

This text tackles the traditional topics of media psychology--sex, violence, advertising--along with developmental aspects of media influence and the psychology of the audience. It examines specific media genres--news, sports, soaps, audience participation media, the internet -- and asks what light psychology can shed on the popularity of these genres and the response of their audiences.
